OK, one more niggle about the previous system vm. We tried to enable aesni [1] to boost encryption performance (ipsec vpn, anything ssl), but the system vm would crash on Vmware if we did that (hence the module blacklisted). Could someone try the new systemvm on VMWare with aesni enabled? I believe it is as simple as modprobe aesni_intel and openssl 1.0.1
